Descale the shower with vinegar and washing up liquid


We all suffer from it sometimes: limescale in the shower. The shower wall, the tap and the spray head: they all have to be taken care of. But don't worry, with a little vinegar and dishwashing liquid you can get rid of it in no time! How? We show you how to get your shower radiantly clean again in a sustainable and efficient way.

Why descaling is important

Limescale is not only annoying to see, but it can also affect the lifespan of your shower. It reduces water pressure and can even damage pipes. Regular descaling ensures that your shower lasts longer and always looks nice and fresh. Win-win if you ask us.

What do you need?
By descaling your shower with vinegar and sustainable dishwashing liquid, you opt for an environmentally friendly solution that works.


In 4 steps to a limescale-free shower

  1. Preparation: Mix equal parts cleaning vinegar and water in a spray bottle. Add a few drops of our dish soap and shake well. Did you know that our dishwashing liquid is not only effective against grease and dirt, but also 100% biodegradable and microplastic-free? You can get started with peace of mind.
  2. Application: Spray the mixture liberally on all surfaces with limescale. Pay extra attention to the shower head, tiles and glass walls. Let the mixture sit for at least 15 minutes so that it can work properly on the limescale.
  3. Cleaning: Use a soft cloth or sponge to clean the surfaces. For stubborn stains, you can apply a little extra dish soap directly to the sponge. Marcel's Green Soap's sustainable dishwashing liquid removes dirt without harmful ingredients.
  4. Rinse: Rinse everything thoroughly with warm water. You will see that the limescale has disappeared and your shower will shine again.
